The 125th Anniversary Gala


Also honoring Plácido Domingo

Celebrate the Met’s 125th anniversary as the world’s greatest singers take the stage in recreations of classic productions from the company’s storied history. Fully staged scenes, conducted by James Levine, will be realized with scenic projections and new costumes made from the original designs. The gala will also celebrate Plácido Domingo’s 40th anniversary with the company.

The evening will feature designs from Marc Chagall’s vision for Die Zauberflöte; the outlawed first presentation outside Bayreuth of Parsifal (1903); the world premiere of La Fanciulla del West (1910); the 1883 Opening Night of Faust; and other classic productions from Met history.
